Broadjam Member Reviews
life and living and loving, and the eternal question it's always worth singing and writing about.
- Jeff Ashbaker
Great guitar tone. Although there is just one guitar, the guitar builds and declines and then builds again. I love the chord changes; it's lovely progression. Strong vocal which reminds me very much of Tom Petty. Beautifully mastered....Lovely bright sound. Nice outro.
- David James
Really great acoustic guitar tone! Nice, simple recording with basic instrumentation - just acoustic and vocal. The verse set up the chorus well and you didn't take too long getting to the chorus which is very good. This tune could work in a heartfelt movie scene and also just sitting around a campfire. Good job.

Lyrics
WILL YOU STILL LOVE ME ?
(STEVE DAFOE 2005)
(COPYRIGHTED)
CHORUS: (PIANO NOTES BELOW)
E C A D B
WILL YOU STILL LOVE ME?
E C A B D
EVEN WHEN WE'RE OLDER?
E C A D B
WILL YOUR EYES BURN BRIGHT?
E C A B D
AS THEY DID AT THE ALTER?
E C A D B
WILL YOU STILL BE MY SWEETIE?
E C A B D
WHEN THERE's NO RICH, JUST POORER?
E C A D B
AS LIFE COOLS LOVE'S SMOULDER?
E C A B D
WILL YOU STILL LOVE ME?
VERSE 1:
A D C B
DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN.......
A C E D B
LIFE WAS JUST YOUTHFUL...?
A D C B
HARDLY, A WORRY THEN.........
A C E D B
YOUNG LOVE , OUR HEARTS SO FULL...
A D C B
WE ENJOYED IT TO THE END...
A G
BUT IN LIFE'S STAGES....
VERSE 2:
TWO SPIRITS BECAME ONE....
NOTHING GREATER THAN THAT...
THEN A DAUGHTER AND A SON
TO CHALLENGE DAD AND MOM
PRESSURES ON US TO KEEP THE FUN
BECAUSE OF LIFE'S STAGES....
VERSE 3:
WE GIVE THEM THEIR ROOTS...
WATCH ALL THEIR FAILURES
KNOWING THERE ARE NO FAST CURES
HELP THEM GET THEIR WINGS...
IN BOTH JOY AND STRESS IT BRINGS...
LIFE PULLS ALL THE STRINGS...
VERSE 4:
THERE'LL BE A DAY WHEN THE KIDS HAVE LEFT
AND WE ARE AGAIN ALONE TO FIND OUR WAY...
BACK TO THE TIME WE FIRST HAD MET.....
TO GET HERE, WE'D NEVER HAVE BET...
WE'D MAKE IT TO THIS LIFE STAGE...
ARE WE READY FOR THE NEXT AS WE SLOWLY AGE?
